Hogs Back Falls

Hogs Back Falls - Ottawa

Winter in Ottawa.  Minus 21degrees celsius at Hog's Back Falls.  My pen is frozen and I don't have a pencil with me so sketching is not an option.  I am surprised my camera works.  I saw four robins in a tree on Boxing Day.  Two days later its freezing .  My fingers are cold but the walk is worth it.  In my younger years I used to run through this park.  I should start running again.  Maybe not.

"If you wish to get hold of the invisible, you must penetrate as deeply as possible into the visible" 

- Max Beckmann

Happy New Years! Here is to a year of living creatively. I am very much looking forward to lots of sketching, painting and writing this year.
